Hi guys and girls,
even though I'm new in this forum, I've bought and sold several reps in the last years (Panerai 292, Rolex Yachtmaster, Omega LMPO). I recently stumbled over a 5513 that I fell absolutely in love with -
I always wanted to build my own franken Sub but am still very cautious as I see it as a big challenge. I was hoping some more experienced user can give me some tips on which parts fit best together and where I can source them from. I tried reading through as many threads as possible, but it's difficult as so many links are still broken since the forum went offline.
The 5513 in question:

Starting off with the parts:
Dial: this Yuki dial seems to be a good match
Case: Very unsure, but wouldn't want to spend more than 500$ on it. Which ones do exist here? Any help is greatly appreciated
Movement: Low beat ETA for now
Insert: Gen would be impossible / any ideas?
Bezel: Also unsure
Crystal: Yuki Plexiglas (?)
As you guys can see I'm still quite lost, especially with the Case and Bezel/Insert.
What parts would you recommend for me?
